Attree Images

I thought I would share a few more pics taken on my Infrared Nikon D200 only this time showing how it affects skin tones and hair. 

A couple of months ago I decided to dust off my old Nikon D200 and send it down to Camera Clinic in Melbourne to get it converted to a digital infrared camera.

Early June saw me jump on a plane headed for Melbourne for the 2010 Canon AIPP APPA's. 

Over 700 entrants, nearly 3000 prints and 3 days of judging ended with an awards dinner at Crown Casino. 

Considering it's been a while since I've done a blog post, I thought I'd share some images that I've been editing today. 

Here's a few of Rina from a shoot back in March. 

Last weekend I did a quick test shoot with my newly acquired pin hole body cap for my Nikon D3s which I purchased from the good people at http://www.lenoxlaser.com/ Exposure times were 10-15 sec at 800 ISO.

I recently uploaded a couple of slide shows to Vimeo which showcase some of my artistic nude work. The first one I produced prior to heading up to Mission Beach for Zoefest last October so I could show my fellow photographers and the models who were attending what my work was like.

On the 26th to the 28th of Feb, the Qld division of the AIPP (Australian Institute of Professional Photography) had their big annual event called Hair of the Dog - http://www.hotd.qaipp.com.au/ This year, I was invited to speak about my Artistic Nude work and do a live studio shoot. 

It's been way too long since my last blog update. Work and the humdrum of every day life sometimes gets in the way of creativity but sometimes all it takes is a little something new or different to spark some enthusiasm and get that inspiration flowing. http://hipstamaticapp.com/ has got me snapping pics left right and centre on my trusty iPhone 3G and I'm having so much fun with it

Orpheus Island offers some beautiful landscape opportunities which I took advantage of on our first afternoon. The only difficulty was getting out of the mindset of wanting a nude model draped over the rocks or amongst the coral covered beach.

3.15 am Sunday morning I was up and preparing for the journey over to Orpheus Island. As part of the advance, set up group, we had to drive from Townsville to Lucinda to load the barge with all the food, Epson printers,  Eizo monitors and of course, alcohol!
